Martins Organic Rice Straw Mulch is 100% rice straw, compressed tightly into a bale. Rice straw does not absorb water, allowing the water to pass through the mulch into the soil. Rice straw lasts longer than other types of mulch, taking longer to break down as it is a stronger/tougher straw. Rice Straw provides an economical way to mulch your garden.
